Books & Exhibitions
Delta Jewels hit the bookshelves on April 7, 2015. A book about women who share their life experiences with her when the Jim Crow area was going on. She wanted to see what her Grandmother saw when she was going through a time where their fathers were shot for asking for a full tank of gas.

Steele took all of her pictures for Delta Jewels in black and white. Not only because it gave it a different effect but she wanted to capture the pictures as if they were taken back when these women were going through a hard time. (Please use ISBN#, cite any reviews. Describe book)
